The given sketch is provided for <\/em><em>the convenience of readers yet unacquainted with her work.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Organist, pedagogue, and composer Rolande Falcinelli was born in Paris on February 18th, 1920. She began her musical studies on the piano at age five, and gave her first public appearance at age seven in a concert with the Garde R\u00e9publicaine at the Trocad\u00e9ro (Paris). At age nine she performed at the Salle Pleyel (Paris). At age twelve she was enrolled at the Paris Conservatoire, where she studied organ under Gaston Litaize, and later under Marcel Dupr\u00e9. At the Conservatoire she won numerous awards, including first prize in solf\u00e8ge, first prize in harmony, first prize in piano accompaniment, first prize in counterpoint and fugue, second prize in composition; first prize in organ (in the class of Dupr\u00e9), and the Grand prix de Rome (1942).<\/p>\n<p>In 1946 Mme Falcinelli was appointed Titular Organist of the Basilica of Sacr\u00e9-Coeur de Montmartre. In 1949 she was appointed to the faculty of the American Conservatory at Fontainebleau. She served as Marcel Dupr\u00e9\u2019s substitute organist at the church of St. Sulpice (Paris) and also in his organ classes at the Paris Conservatoire. In 1955 she was appointed to the faculty of the Paris Conservatoire, where she taught organ and improvisation. She retired from the Conservatoire in 1986.<\/p>\n<p>Mme Falcinelli was a frequent recitalist in Paris, in the French provinces, and across Europe. In addition, she made a North American tour in 1950, visiting some dozen or more cities in Canada and in the USA. Attesting to her devotion to the legacy of Marcel Dupr\u00e9, she performed all of Dupr\u00e9\u2019s organ works from memory, for the first time at the Salle Pleyel in 1948. Some twenty years later she recorded many of Dupr\u00e9\u2019s works for commercial release. During her many years as a recitalist, Mme Falcinelli\u2019s prowess as an improvising artist was considerable.Throughout her career, the traditional finish to each of her recital appearances was an improvisation based on themes received in the moment from audience members.<\/p>\n<p>Her output as a composer consists of more than 60 completed opus numbers, in addition to numerous unpublished early works. She made several transcriptions both for organ and for orchestra, and also edited for publication numerous works by other composers. Her original writings include a method for the organ, yet unpublished.<\/p>\n<p>She died on June 11th, 2006, in Pau, France, and was survived by her daughter, musicologist Sylviane Falcinelli.<\/p>\n<h4>Provenance<\/h4>\n<p>The Rolande Falcinelli Archive was the gift of Mme Falcinelli\u2019s daughter, musicologist Sylviane Falcinelli, and was received by the Sibley Music Library in five installments between November, 2011 and May, 2012. As of this writing (July, 2015), further collection accruals are anticipated.<\/p>\n<h4>Scope and Content note<\/h4>\n<p>The Rolande Falcinelli Archive comprises the largest body of Mme Falcinelli\u2019s papers extant anywhere in the world, embracing the manuscripts of her creative work and also the documents reflecting the administrative aspects of her professional work. Also among the documents are pedagogical materials that she developed for use at the Paris Conservatoire; manuscripts of her unpublished works and of some of her published works; and both professional and personal correspondence. A special component of the Archive are those documents reflecting her longtime association with Marcel Dupr\u00e9, attesting to their collegial relationship.<\/p>\n<h4>Restrictions on Use<\/h4>\n<p>Certain restrictions attend the Rolande Falcinelli Archive. Under the U.S. Copyright Law and its revisions, copyright restrictions do apply. The written permission of Sylviane Falcinelli must be obtained by any user seeking reproductions of any of Rolande Falcinelli\u2019s unpublished works, or of any other of her original works the rights to which have not been assigned elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, restrictions attend certain other documents. The collection contains numerous documents that originated in the administrative offices of the Paris Conservatoire. The Ruth T. Watanabe Special Collections Department recognizes the institutional prerogative of the Paris Conservatoire over those documents.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Mme Falcinelli\u2019s notes as a jury member at competitions and festivals are restricted on the grounds that they bear on the work and ultimately the reputations of individuals still living.<\/p>\n<h4>Associations<\/h4>\n<p>As of this writing, the Rolande Falcinelli Archive represents the most recently acquired organistic collection of the Ruth T. Watanabe Special Collections. Other collections in that number are those of ESM faculty members Russell Saunders and Michael D. Farris, and the collection of Dr. Mario Salvador, longtime organist-choirmaster of the Cathedral Basilica of St. Louis, Missouri.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1626194555618{margin-top: -10px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"Series\" name=\"Series\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>DESCRIPTION OF SERIES<\/h3>\n<p>The Rolande Falcinelli Archive has been arranged in four sub-groups, which are further subdivided into the series and sub-series outlined below. Because the papers were received in no discernible order, this arrangement was synthetically created to facilitate ease of access. Further, much of the folder-level arrangement was synthetically created by the repository. Those folder- level appellations appearing in French reflect original arrangement and filing designations as were received by the SML, presumably imposed by Rolande Falcinelli herself.<\/p>\n<h4>Sub-group I:\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0MUSIC MANUSCRIPTS<\/h4>\n<p>This sub-group is comprised of autograph manuscripts of original works by Rolande Falcinelli, together with manuscripts of arrangements and transcriptions made by her. For the most part, the manuscripts represented are completed copies, but numerous drafts and sketches are also present.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/esm4.esm.rochester.edu\/sibley\/specialcollections\/findingaids\/falcinelli\/sub1\/#S1S1\">Series 1: Early works<\/a><br \/>\nThis series is comprised of the manuscripts of Rolande Falcinelli\u2019s earliest compositions, from a very early age through the conferral of the Grand Prix de Rome. The suggestion of the conferral of the Prix de Rome as the point of demarcation in Rolande Falcinelli\u2019s composing career was made by Sylviane Falcinelli at the time of disposition of the manuscripts. The manuscripts are chronologically arranged insofar as dates of composition were discernible.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/esm4.esm.rochester.edu\/sibley\/specialcollections\/findingaids\/falcinelli\/sub1\/#S1S2\">Series 2: Mature works<\/a><br \/>\nThis series is comprised of the manuscripts of compositions of Rolande Falcinelli\u2019s mature works, i.e. those written after the conferral of the Grand Prix de Rome. The completed manuscripts are arranged sequentially by opus number; certain manuscripts of mature works yet reside with Sylviane Falcinelli. To date, certain works are represented within the collection only on microfilm; receipt of the corresponding manuscripts is anticipated at a later date.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/esm4.esm.rochester.edu\/sibley\/specialcollections\/findingaids\/falcinelli\/sub1\/#S2sA\"><em>Sub-series A: Completed manuscripts, original works<\/em><\/a><br \/>\nThe manuscripts of original works are arranged sequentially by opus number; each opus number is rendered in brackets as a main entry.

Most of the documents in this sub-group were given by Marcel Dupr\u00e9 to RF on various occasions; some of the documents herein were collected by RF elsewhere, but have been included in this sub-group owing to their association with Dupr\u00e9. Altogether, the documents in this sub-group attest to the association between MD and RF\u2014initially, as teacher\/mentor and student, and later, as professional colleagues. The documents also attest to MD\u2019s confidence in RF, who actively promoted his musical and organistic principles, and who was later ardently dedicated to his memory.<\/p>\n<p>With respect to those documents having Marcel Dupr\u00e9 as their provenance, the circumstances or occasions of transmission of those documents are, for the most part, unknown and\/or undocumented.
